The season before last he had a hugely disappointing spell at DONCASTER and the signed for b'rum on a free. Yes he was one of their better players last year but after looking at his stats they aren't that impressive at all, especially for a club aiming to get promoted. We should be looking at his team mate Demerai Gray, a player with huge potential and can be the pacey, dynamic winger we need in this team. I honestly believe cotterill is no better than what we have. Just my opinion but this one does not fill me with confidence.
On the other hand Che Adams is a player that I feel we can do little to no harm in acquiring. Hes young, pacey, direct and strong with bags of potential, the only fear is we wouldn't be the only team interested seeing as he has a year left on his contract. He's only 18 and id be surprised is he isn't with a prem team come 21, I just hope its with us of course.

to be honest with you I'm not that inspired or excited about the potential signing of Cotterill but he will get my full support if he does indeed join us, he could be slightly better than what we have and probably on less wages.
Adams, on the other hand, looks very good at 18 and a very big prospect.
Unfortunately Slade has to shop where he is shopping so we have to keep our fingers crossed that he unearths a gem or 2 otherwise we are fooked
I still feel that Slade can not attract many players of real significance but I live in hope because that is all I can do. If it was my choice then he wouldn't be anywhere near our squad and nor would Scott Young.
By the way, you should email Owain and ask him to change your username

I was just about to ask if I could get it changed and if so how so thank you

Although his stats last season were much better than our current wingers I can't see him being much of an improvement.
Im willing to give every player a chance mind and if he comes I hope he can prove me wrong. Maybe its just because I expected the calibre of player to be from slades A list rather than the B list. Hope Che Adams signs though.

Before Bothroyd signed for us he had achieved f**k all, but went on to be 1 of the best strikers I've seen play for this club

Bringing in Che Adams would be pointless and would be a bad move for him personally because he won't be playing here unless it's the development before being loaned back to league one .

If we could sell Whittingham to Hull and replace him with Adams for £1m or less. Then it would be cracking business by us. Adams is very young and still learning, but he can offer us everything that Whittingham is supposed to offer us, yet Whittingham just doesn't anymore. Also on top of that Che Adams he has great pace, can play in numerous different positions and if used correctly could become a fans favourite next season. I think he would need to play in the number ten role like Mason does at the moment, just behind Doyle. Adams is a much better player than Mason is, in my opinion.
Bloooooobirds.

Do you think Healy is currently a better player than Adams then?

I don't think there is a lot between them , Both have a lot of potential ur slightly different players. I would say Healey had the better season last year, add that to his fantastic scoring record at development level and I can't see how Adams would be ahead of him at this point in time.
Saying that neither would be getting near the first team next season we have too many strikers ahead of them and bringing in Che Adams would turn into another Kadeem Harris. He won't be seen for 2/3 years and his development would stall before being released.
Jones, Macheda, Mason, Doyle and Revell will all start ahead of them.
